Old tax regime vs. the new tax regime
The old (existing)
tax regime allows for a variety of income tax deductions and exemptions, and
hence is suitable for most of the taxpayers. However, the new tax regime may
prove beneficial to those who have not significantly invested in various
tax-saving schemes, such as Employee Provident Fund (EPF), Equity Linked
Savings Scheme (ELSS), Life Insurance, National Pension Scheme (NPS), National
Savings Certificate (NSC), tax-saving Fixed Deposit (FD), etc. Moreover,
a standard deduction of Rs. 50,000 for salaried individuals and HRA allowance
also do not apply under the new tax regime.
Let us understand
how the total tax payout is affected under the two regimes through the
following table. We have considered an income tax deduction of Rs. 1.5 lakh u/s
80C, Rs. 25,000 u/s 80D and Rs. 50,000 as a standard deduction when computing tax
using the existing income tax slab rates. Thus, the total deduction
amounts to Rs. 2.25 lakh.
